[IAEP] Xconomy: Internet Archive Opens 1.6 Million E-Books to Kids with OLPC Laptops

[Jim Simmons]

This is an interesting article, but not very illuminating.  Can anyone
figure out what they're doing now that they were not doing before to
make the books usable by XO users?  It isn't clear from the article.
They have had books in PDF format since before the XO existed, so
what's new here?
